Avery, Tualatin, and Dr. E. C. Homes, Milwaukie. Following are 12 suggestions Bennion makes for conserving feed by poultry producers: 1. Cull laying flocks once a week, marketing low producers. This is known as spot culling. 2. Eliminate all male birds unless needed for breeding. 3. Market broilers and fryers at lighter weights. 4. Provide 6 to 8 pounds daily of green feed or roots per 100 birds. 5. Feed a well balanced ration. Skimping increases feed needs per dozen eggs. 6. Feed daily at noon all moist mash or pellets laying hens will consume in 30 minutes. 7. Avoid filling feed hoppers Driver of the car in the ditch faded to yield the right-of-way, even to mn ambulance.

Shoun of Walla Wal la, Betty Acock of Pendleton, Joe Weather Already Affecting 1948 Grain Prospects Current trends in market pri ces for grain already reflect wea ther reports and crop prospects for 1948, says L. R. Breithaupt, O.S.C. extension agricultural ec onomist. Unfavorable conditions for planting wheat in the Great Plains are affecting livestock feeding operations, also. Despite government announced longed rains last spring. Even the late planted corn is mostly safe. General rains in the west have been beneficial for fall-sown grain and late pastures and ranges. Considerable wheat planted west of the Rockies for harvest in 1948 is already up with good stands. The droughty condition that prevailed for several weeks in the winter wheat area of the western plains affected the de mand for feeder cattle. Ordinar goals and price supports for j 'lv. many cattle are pastured in wheat in 1948, the planting of fall-sown grain has been affect ed by drought during recent weeks in the principal winter wheat states east of the Rockies. Belated rains have somewhat al leviated the drought, however, and prospects are more hopeful. While adverse for 1948 grain prospects, the dry weather help ed mature this year's corn crop. Very little damage was done to corn by frost as had been feared owing to lateness caused by pro- Paul s1 of Whidley Island, Louis Rucker of Arlington, Delpha Markham and Larry O. Berg of Seattle all spent the week end in Irrigon with relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. Grover Pelton and grandson Danny Orr arrived from Greeley, Col., to spend the winter with the E. S. Peltons. Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Smunk are visiting friends in Portland. the fall on wheat pastures in that area. Such pastures will not provide the usual amount of feed. That is one of the factors contributing to smaller numbers of livestock to be fed this win ter, Breithaupt reports. An overall reduction is expect ed in feeding operations, both cattle and lambs, compared with last season, according to surveys by the USDA bureau of agricul tural economics. In addition to short wheat pastures, there is less feed grain, and prices for feed are high. Prices for stock ers and feeders are also at near record high levels. The 1947 lamb crop was smaller, leaving fewer lambs to go to feedlots. Thus, weather conditions dur ing the last several months have affected crop prospects and mar ket prices and conditions to an unusual degree. The outcome at harvest time in 1948 of the new winter wheat plantings is still hopeful Clean, all-beat Standard Furnace Oil returns every beating penny you put out!
